Clubs

We run lots of different clubs before, during and after the main school day. For details of our Wraparound Care please see the Parents/Wraparound Care webpage of this website. Our other clubs range from sporting clubs (such as cross country, hockey, karate, adventure club etc) to clubs that cater for other interests (such as knitting, cooking and board games). Clubs are run at different times throughout the school year and details of new clubs that are available to the children are posted on our school Newsletter. If your child would like to join a club or you have any suggestions for other clubs, please speak to any member of staff and we will endeavour to help. Please also visit the Calendar page of this website to see which clubs are running on a daily basis.

In addition, we employ peripatetic music teachers from the renowned Northamptonshire Music and Performing Arts Service for keyboard, woodwind, brass, recorder, strings, guitar and orchestra teaching. For full details of the music lessons offered, please see the Parents/Music Lessons webpage of this website.

A number of clubs/groups are run directly by staff members at Helmdon School whereas some are run by specialist outside providers. Please note that we are not able to set fees for clubs that are run by outside providers. We do not charge for all clubs that are run by Helmdon School staff. However, when it is necessary to charge for these clubs, we endeavour to keep the costs to parents as low as possible.
